Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a Chinese healing therapy designed to rebalance and unblock the flow of energy within the body. Extremely fine gauge needles are inserted at selected acupuncture points, stimulating these points and regulating the energy from the pathway surfaces to the deeper circulatory channels within and thereby activating the body’s natural healing abilities. Our acupuncturists use the technology resulting in a pain-free relaxing experience-some patients even fall asleep during the treatment.

Acupressure (Chinese Massage / Tui Na)

Acupressure is similar with acupuncture therapy, and stimulation of acupuncture points by hand and palm. This therapy is used to correct imbalance, create relaxation and achieve harmony in the body’s system. The acupuncture and massage work together that will achieve the best results.
